Reports on phone number 02840520866
1 yearThey called saying they worked for an energy firm, but I told them they were trying to scam me and then just ended the call.2 yearsThe call came through on VOIP but when I tried to answer, the scammer never bothered to pick up. Eventually, the auto-dialler just ended the call on its own.2 yearsSome bloke called Ben rang up about some government insulation thing. I just told him to sod off and find a real job, then I hung up straight away.Ben2 yearsSomebody called saying they were from a government agency and wanted to book a loft insulation check because apparently I'd never had one done since the insulation went in. When I asked how they got my contact details, they just ended the call. I rang their number back and a recorded message said they were actually a solar panel sales company - can't trust what they’re saying at all!2 yearsGot a ring from someone about home insulation, sounded like one of those dodgy scam calls.2 yearsGot a call while I was having a shower, wasn’t able to answer. They didn’t leave any voicemail or anything. Just blocked the number straight away.2 yearsGot a call from some bloke called "Peter" claiming he’s an energy advisor for my neighbourhood. Honestly, this is at least the tenth one I've had this week! Seems like there's a whole army of them. They’ve got nothing better to do than keep ringing. Total scam artists, all of them. Blocked the number straight away but I’m sure they’ll just ring from somewhere else next time. Pure scam. Don’t trust ’em!Peter2 yearsI just posted a comment but thought I’d add more... He had a very English accent, which seemed odd for someone calling from Ireland. He said his name was Ben. When I told him what he was doing was against the law, he kept on talking. I asked if he heard me and repeated it, then he just hung up.BenIreland2 yearsSome bloke named Ben rang me claiming he worked for a government insulation scheme, but I knew straight away that’s rubbish. He told me the insulation in our loft was dodgy and had to be swapped out, which is impossible since we don’t even have a loft. Even though we’re on the TPS list, these annoying calls keep coming non stop!BenTelephone Preference Service2 yearsCalls keep coming through but no one ever answers.2 yearsAs soon as I picked up, they just cut the call off - classic scammer behaviour from those call centres.2 yearsThey ring me every single day but I just don't pick up! Even when I block the number, they somehow manage to get through each time.2 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t know so I let it ring out to voicemail. As soon as it went to voicemail, the caller hung up straight away - classic sign of a scam. They’re definitely ignoring TPS regulations even though I’m signed up. Sorted it by blocking the number through BT 1572.TPSBT2 yearsI keep getting phone calls every day, and when I pick up a few times, there's just silence and then the call ends.2 yearsNumber was unknown so I just stayed quiet, then the caller ended the call. Pretty obvious it was a scam.2 yearsGot a call from a blocked number, reckon it was a scam. Ignored it straight away.2 yearsWas in the middle of making a cuppa so didn’t pick up. Didn’t leave any voicemail either. If they ring back again, I’ll just block the number. I’ve been on the TPS list for yonks but they still keep ringing!Telephone Preference Service2 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from “Green Energy” and started asking about saving money by putting solar panels on my roof. Weird thing is, I’ve had the exact same chat from different phone numbers, mostly in the mornings or around dinner time. I told them to take me off their call list since I don’t have a roof at all - I stay in an apartment! But they just keep ringing anyway... it’s super frustrating!Green Energy2 yearsThis number rang me twice now. At first, I thought it was one of those Smart Meter scams cause he started with that same spiel. When he said, "we won't share your info with anybody else," I answered back quite bluntly saying I wasn't bothered. Then he gave out some other team member’s number before cutting off the call abruptly. I didn’t waste any time and blocked the number straight away. Funny thing is, I had already blocked them not long ago when they called but didn’t leave a message about two days earlier.2 yearsGot a dodgy call and just blocked the number straight away.2 yearsKeeps ringin my landline even tho it’s ex-directory! As soon as my answer machine kicks in, they hang up. I signed up for TPS like 5 months back but still get loads of calls every day from different numbers. Proper annoying! Blocked em now. 😡Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI picked up, but no one was speaking. Honestly, these calls are really annoying and I think they ought to be blocked.2 yearsNo one answered, just a dead silent call. Definitely one of those scam attempts.2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be an energy consultant for the area, saying our loft insulation doesn’t meet the latest requirements. I told him straight up that calling me out of the blue like that was against the law since I’m registered with the TPS, and he was definitely NOT a government official like he tried to make out. I guess that bluff rattled him because the phone just went dead before he could reply. Seriously, when will the TPS actually start taking action against these people?Telephone Preference ServiceTPS2 yearsGot a call early around eight in the morning with some spiel about energy advice. I was polite but quickly ended the chat and blocked the number straight away.2 yearsTotal rip off!2 yearsJust rang up out of the blue, no names given just straight to "have you had your insulation checked?" Proper posh voice too, definitely someone dodging TPS rules.2 yearsMost of the time it’s a scam when they open with questions like “who’s this?” Pretty sure that’s how they try to trick you.2 yearsI got a call from Northern Ireland but the person never bothered to say their name or press any buttons. Thankfully, Callguardian stopped them from calling me back again.Northern Ireland2 yearsPicked up just to hear an ansafone - normally that’s a sure sign. Just go ahead and BLOCK it.2 yearsSaw a call from 02840520866 and decided not to pick up since this site flagged it as dodgy. Glad I trusted the warning!2 yearsWatch out, total scammers!2 yearsGot a call from a number nearly the same as others ringing me lately - same area code, just a single digit off. They didn’t even bother leaving a voicemail.2 yearsGot a call from someone pushing double glazing, seemed a bit dodgy so I just blocked their number. Definitely felt like a scam to me.2 yearsThey keep ringing my phone loads throughout the day. Most of the time, no-one picks up, but a few times I caught a bloke on the line. He never really said who he was, just went on and on about some government-approved insulation stuff... it's all a bit dodgy if you ask me.2 yearsKept getting calls about windows and doors, even after putting myself on the TPS. Ended up having to block the number on my phone to get peace.TPS2 yearsTotal rip off, just scammers trying to con you.2 yearsDefinitely a con.2 yearsDidn’t answer 'cos I didn’t know the number. Pretty sure it was one of those scam calls, so I went ahead and blocked it now.2 yearsGot a call from this number yesterday, ends with 520861, total scam. I have my number registered with TPS, but they keep ringing anyway. I just blocked it now, seriously, TPS doesn't do a thing to stop these calls!TPS2 yearsThis morning I got a call from this number. I said hello, but there was silence for a bit, so I just said bye and hung up. Felt a bit odd, not sure what that was about.2 yearsI’ve signed up with the TPS to block calls from those entry provider companies.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from some robot voice trying to sell solar panels. Total bot, no real person on the other end.2 yearsWithin just four days, I've had at least six calls from various numbers all pushing energy stuff, like insulation and solar panels. Today was the worst though - got four calls in a single day! Started to feel like they’re just harassing me now.2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Dave about windows and doors, didn’t fancy it so I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.Dave2 yearsI missed a call from this number yesterday, but I’m signed up with the TPS so it’s obvious they’re not following the rules. Honestly, the TPS does a rubbish job and needs to be scrapped for a proper system that actually does something. If these annoying calls meant jail time, I bet they’d stop straight away.TPS2 yearsHere’s another leech bothering people again. Honestly, when will this ever end?2 yearsTotal scam, mate! Wouldn’t trust that call for a second.2 yearsHad a call from someone warning me that the insulation in our loft might bring damp. When I asked how they found my number, they just hung up straight away.2 yearsSome bloke called Chris from the "Green Eco Centre" kept dodging when I asked where he was based and then just hung up. Sounds like one of those insulation scams to me.ChrisGreen Eco Centre2 yearsIt rang for ages around midday, but I didn’t pick up this time. Quite longer than it normally goes.2 yearsI ended up blocking the number so they can't call me anymore.2 yearsThey've been calling me a bunch lately, but I’m hardly picking up on the landline anymore since I mostly use my mobile now. This afternoon they kept ringing for more than two minutes - that’s a big warning sign in my book. I looked the number up online and it looks like it’s probably a scam. The calls seem to be coming from Northern Ireland, but I’ve got no links there at all, neither for work nor personal reasons.Northern Ireland2 yearsSeriously, just ignore this number. It's another one of those scams trying to mess with you.2 yearsToday I missed a call from this number because I didn’t know who it was, and they didn’t bother leaving a message. Pretty sure it was just another scam.2 yearsSome bloke named John rang me from something like Drive Centre? I said he had the wrong number and just put the phone down.JohnDrive CentreSubmit Your Own Report (028 4052 0866)
